Suspect indicted in LaSalle student's slaying

A man accused of shooting a LaSalle High School student after an attempted drug buy has been indicted.

A grand jury indicted Dierres Lee, 19, on two counts each of murder and felonious assault. If convicted, Lee faces the possibility of life in prison.

Lee is accused of firing into a car containing four people who had bought marijuana from Lee with counterfeit money, prosecutors said.

One of the four in the car, Justin Brown, was shot in the back of the neck. His friends took Brown to Good Samaritan Hospital for treatment, but he died after he was taken to University Hospital.

Lee was arrested the day after the shooting at his father's house.

"This is another sad case of a young person dying because of drugs. Drug dealing is a dangerous business for both the buyer and seller and, unfortunately, it claims too many young lives," Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters said in a news release.
